Crashes on Windows 8 But I have a fix
This review stays at 1 star until the crash issue is fixed. Otherwise a fantastic game that deserves the highest rating, a true classic. I tried out another reviewers suggestion of altering the compatibility modes and initially it did not work, however I tried a different resolution under the software mode and it is now working. -My Solution Locate the "config.exe", "sfc.exe", and "Starfleet.exe" files. Next set the compatibility settings as follows: Run in Windows XP service pack 3; check the run as admin and disable display scaling on high DPI settings boxes. Now open the "config.exe" file and set the video to software and the resolution to 640x480(Not 800x600) I did not experience any crashes so far and this seems to be the solution to play the game. -I am using an Nvidia 900 series video card on Windows 8.1
